Chapter 403: Arrogance

Chen Yu grabbed that contract, didn't even look at it, tore it directly into pieces, and then threw it heavily onto Zhao Zhong's face.

"Chen Yu, you are too arrogant. I will make you regret this," Zhao Zhong said in a great rage.

Slap... Chen Yu slapped Zhao Zhong down to one side. The two bodyguards behind him stepped forward to grab Chen Yu, but they were also slapped to the ground by Chen Yu, one by one.

"Zhao Zhong, you didn't get beaten enough last time, did you?" Chen Yu grabbed Zhao Zhong by the collar: "Believe it or not, this time I can beat you until you need to be remade from scratch."

"You surnamed Chen, just try touching me once. I, Zhao Zhong, have never been afraid of anyone in Fengling," Zhao Zhong said angrily.

"Heh, you've never been afraid of anyone?" Chen Yu laughed: "I admit that point. Your Zhao Family does indeed have face in Fengling, and with backing from Shengjing above, the Zhao Family has people in the imperial court. I still acknowledge that."

"Then how do you think you compare to Yu Sichun?" Chen Yu asked.

"That woman is brain-dead. Don't compare me to her. Chen Yu, don't think that just because you can kill Yu Sichun, I will be afraid of you. I am different from her," Zhao Zhong shrieked.

"Oh, you're different from her?" Chen Yu laughed, and he suddenly swung a slap toward Zhao Zhong.

Slap... A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from Zhao Zhong's mouth, and then he fell backward, landing on the floor with a thud, his head hitting the corner of the sofa heavily.

This slap from Chen Yu really cost him half his life. He lay on the ground twitching for a long time before he could barely struggle to crawl up.

"Chen Yu..." Zhao Zhong gritted his teeth, wanting to say a few harsh words, but as soon as he spat out a sentence, Chen Yu kicked him again, landing right in his lower abdomen.

Pfft, Zhao Zhong spat out a mouthful of blood. He lay on the ground and could no longer crawl up.

"Someone, drag him out," Chen Yu said indifferently: "Put up a sign at the door later: Zhao Zhong and dogs are not allowed to enter."

"Yes, boss." Two security guards walked over and dragged Zhao Zhong, who looked like a dead dog, out. Bang... Zhao Zhong was thrown out.

"Chen Yu, violence cannot solve the current problem," Song Mengyan sighed and said: "The statement you had us release is like lighting a powder keg; it has completely detonated the internet."

"Now the entrance to our building is blocked by those influencers and bored people chasing clout. Even our employees are being forced to resign by their friends and family once they find out they work at Tianyun."

"Has the problem reached this point? It seems Tianyun has reached the point of public outrage," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Alright, the situation online has brewed enough. The counterattack begins."

"Counterattack? How do we counterattack?" Song Mengyan was puzzled.

Before Chen Yu could finish speaking, Xia Dong had already walked in with a group of people.

"President Song, President Chen, you should know the situation online by now, right?" Xia Dong held her head high, looking quite gloating: "Are you still not going to hire us for public relations?"

"Who let you in?" Chen Yu glanced at her. Honestly, he didn't like this self-righteous woman. This kind of woman always had an aloof air that was disgusting.

"The pass you gave us last time hasn't expired yet. Now we should talk about the upcoming crisis management," Xia Dong put down her computer: "But before that, we need to talk about the price."

"Price?" Chen Yu looked at Xia Dong as if looking at a fool: "You want to raise the price?"

"That's right, I want to raise the price. You are facing a very serious problem now; the stock price has plummeted. I won't even mention how much you've lost," Xia Dong said arrogantly: "I can say that no one else can solve your current problem except our company."

"You are really quite confident," Chen Yu laughed.

"I have handled many crisis PR cases, so of course I'm confident. Believe it or not, the facts are right before my eyes. Besides, no ordinary PR company would dare take on your current problem," Xia Dong smiled: "Now the price is three times the original base."

"You really dare to open your mouth like a lion. Do you really think I have no other way but to find you?" Chen Yu laughed.

"Public relations is not as simple as you think—opinion monitoring, opinion reversal, including some marketing accounts on the internet setting the narrative," Xia Dong said leisurely: "So besides us, you really can't handle it. If you agree, I guarantee the matter can be quelled in the shortest possible time."

"I never said I was going to use your PR company," Chen Yu laughed.

"If you don't use us, who will you use?" Xia Dong glanced at Chen Yu and said: "Originally, this matter would have ended if you had apologized, but you insisted on making such a big scene. If it's not quelled, your Tianyun will really be finished."

"But I also understand President Chen. After all, President Chen thinks he is the boss of a listed company, with status, position, and money," Xia Dong said with a chuckle: "Consider this matter as you spending money to buy a lesson."

"Where is Jun Jun?" Chen Yu asked.

"Brother Chen, I'm here," Jun Jun ran over holding a computer: "The server I need will arrive tonight, but the network center should be installed at the Jiying headquarters; it's safe there."

"No problem. Now, represent the Tianyun Group PR department and say a few words," Chen Yu smiled.

"No problem," Jun Jun gave a silly grin, looking a bit naive.

"Him? Representing our Tianyun Group PR department?" Song Mengyan felt it was unbelievable.

"That's right, it's me." Jun Jun adjusted his glasses, looking childish, barely managing to put on an old-fashioned air: "From now on, I will handle the public opinion crises around Brother Chen."

"Chen Yu, you aren't making a mistake, are you?" Xia Dong was stunned. Her arrogant self-esteem seemed to have been dealt a blow at this moment, and she shrieked: "This is just a child."

"That's right, he is just a child, but believe me, Xia Dong, your so-called bullshit PR company is a hundred thousand miles behind him," Chen Yu laughed.

"Chen Yu, you are humiliating me. I have been in this industry for over ten years. You don't believe me and actually only believe this kid?" Xia Dong was furious.

"That's right, I'll repeat it again: you are not as good as him," Chen Yu sneered: "Put away your arrogant posture. Jun Jun, how long until the reversal?"

"Give me an afternoon. At the latest, I can reverse the public opinion by tonight. Mainly because the material you have, Brother Chen, is too potent," Jun Jun grinned.

"Alright, if you need anything, have Song Mengyan assist you. President Song, contact all the media we can reach and say that our Tianyun person in charge, Comrade Jun Jun, is going to explain some things regarding this matter and release some videos," Chen Yu smiled.

"Okay," Song Mengyan nodded. She didn't question any of Chen Yu's words at all.

"Chen Yu, just you wait. I'll watch as Tianyun destroys itself," Xia Dong said angrily.

"Someone, take their passes. They are not allowed to enter Tianyun ever again," Chen Yu frowned.

"Chen Yu, what did you say? Do you know what kind of treatment I get at other companies? Do you know how hard it is to invite me out?" Xia Dong couldn't believe her ears.

"Throw them out," Chen Yu waved his hand unceremoniously.

Several security guards immediately ran over and pushed and chased Xia Dong and her group out.

"Chen Yu, you will regret this. You will definitely regret this," Xia Dong shrieked, her voice getting smaller and smaller until she was finally thrown into the elevator.

"Chen Yu, that Wu De called and said he wants to see you," Song Mengyan said after answering a call.

"See me?" Chen Yu said in surprise: "Did he come to the company?"

"No, but he sent an address for you to go to," Song Mengyan said: "Are you going?"

"Go, why wouldn't I? The press conference will proceed as usual. I'll go meet this kid," Chen Yu sneered.

In a small bar, inside a private room.

Chen Yu met Wu De here.

This guy was wearing a crisp custom suit, a Green Water Ghost watch on his wrist, a cigar in his mouth, and he looked at Chen Yu with an arrogant, condescending posture.

"Heh, Chen Yu, you're here?" Seeing Chen Yu, Wu De smiled, extinguished the cigar in his hand, and waved his hand.

A waiter nodded and closed the door.

This room is very secluded, and the soundproofing is excellent; Wu De bringing Chen Yu to a place like this must mean he has something to say.

"If you have something to say, speak," Chen Yu said indifferently.

"Hehe, Chen Yu, we are all sensible people. Turn off your phone, then we can talk; I don't want our conversation to be recorded. Also, you must let me check if you have anything on you." Wu De took out a detector, which was specifically for detecting surveillance equipment.
